Jerry Garcia is one of a few defining figures who reshaped American culture and rock history in the second half of the Twentieth Century, a cornerstone of anti-war and human rights movements of the late ’60s through early ’70s, whose heritage and legacy, both as a musician and as an artist, continues to resonate, embodying a spirit of innovation, nonconformity, and creative exploration that has influenced generations.

On August 1st, 2024, the Arete Gallery opened a ravishing exhibition celebrating Jerry Garcia's art. This exhibition brought music and visual art fans into the dynamic creative world of the iconic Grateful Dead frontman. Though Garcia is best known for his extraordinary musical legacy, he was also an accomplished artist, creating a remarkable collection of paintings, drawings, and mixed-media works throughout his life.
